Olympique de Marseille by 1
Looks like we have a clash between Le Havre and Olympique de Marseille, somewhat of a George vs. Goliath showdown if you ask me.
The bright light on the Olympique de Marseille side, goalkeeper Pau López, has proven his worth with a 6.74 rating and he's nabbed 11 saves this season.
Now, speaking of Le Havre, I think it's fair to mention goalkeeper Arthur Desmas, who holds a 6.65 rating and has chalked up 8 saves, quite commendable.
Let's shine the spotlight on a couple of the Olympique de Marseille team's glitterati, shall we? Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang and Jonathan Clauss have been quite the dynamic duo on the field. At a 7.60 rating and 4 goals, Aubameyang makes soccer look like child's play. Clauss, on the other hand, boasts a 7.27 rating and 1 goal to his name. Got to hand it to Clauss, he doesn't miss a trick.
The Le Havre team, not to be left unnoticed, boasts Christopher Operi and André Ayew. Operi packs a punch with a 7.60 rating and 1 goal to his name. Ayew, despite his cool 7.30 rating, is a no-nonsense player, bagging 2 goals.
Slip into your time machines, folks, because we're looking back at a past matchup that saw Olympique de Marseille trump Le Havre 3-0. Certainly, something to keep in mind.
As we glance at the regular season records, Olympique de Marseille is sitting pretty at 12-11-10. On the other side of the field, Le Havre's 7-11-15 record leaves room for a little prayer.
Marseille's recent streak may have hit a bump against Stade de Reims but it certainly is something to admire with 2 consecutive wins proceeding a couple of tie games. Le Havre, on the other hand, is dodging punches left and right with a couple of losses thrown in the mix.
After weighing all of these factors, our prediction machine is pointing towards...
